Corrib Light Rail

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

OTRS has received a request for this article's deletion at 2015081810026316. The request comes from Brain Guckian, who is the originator of the Corrib Light Rail plan. He asks that the article be deleted "on the basis that the proposal is now out of date, has been superceded by other light rail proposals for Galway, Ireland and therefore the content is no longer useful, relevant or appropriate. In addition, on a secondary basis that the content is heavily vandalised and not in any way representative of the original article or proposal." Now, of course WP:NTEMP, but I agree that the page should be deleted, rather on the basis that Corrib Light Rail was never notable, even when the project was still up in the air. In my searches online, I find no reliable secondary sources to establish that this subject passes WP:N, and the abandoned state of this project means that no new sources are going to appear. I note that most of the sources used in the current article are not specifically about Corrib Light Rail, but rail projects in this part of Ireland in general. It may be worth the smallest mention in other articles about light rail systems in the area, but I do not think it requires its own page. Someguy1221 (talk) 10:13, 24 August 2015 (UTC)
